What a remarkable family the Mackay's are. I'd love someone to collect all their stories, and trace where this sporting skill originated, and are there any sporting enthusiasts in their descendants. Lovely to read how proud Sommie (now where did he get that name?) is of his big brother.
I don't know where 'Sommie" came from -- I hope one ofthe Mackay family will tell us all.
I'd also like tone of them to tell me: did the pronunciation of his name change when he got in the national team. I'm sure local radio used to calle him Ken "mc-kay" not "McKai"
